The sediment trapping experiments, with durations of six months to more than a year, required a completely different data recording system than the one employed for the one month intensive experiments. It must be capable of reliably logging data samples several times each day without requiring any resident personnel. In 1976, the Nearshore Research Group at SIO had completed the development of a system for monitoring wave climatology at distant locations (Figure 7B-1). This wave network, which is described in its initial form in Seymour and Sessions (1976), is funded jointly by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers and the California Department of Boating and Waterways.
